Chapter 56: The Vanishing Vacant Seat
I saw that in the inner room, there were two rows of chairs. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Four on the left and right, symmetrically placed, from a distance, it seems that there are white bones on it.
The group walked in and found that there were indeed three white bones each.
Looking at the style, none of them are human remains, but they are not common beasts, maybe some special creatures, such as ancient beasts.
"Look, there's a word on it, and there's a word on it. Xuanyuan Qing walked closer and noticed that there was a complicated font on the back of the chair.
The stroke trend is strange, nine curves and eighteen bends, very rare, he has read classics since he was a child, he feels that it is similar to the hieroglyphs in ancient books, but he doesn't know half of it, and he is very annoyed.
Yan Yuntian stepped forward and discussed with Zhang Tianyu for a moment before speaking, "This should be the script of the ancient demon clan, which has rarely been used daily in the late stage of the demon clan, and is only occasionally used on important occasions such as sacrifices, and there are already signs of extinction at that time. ”
"In this way, could this be a sacrificial place for the Demon King of the Raging Lan?" Xuanyuan Qing was very excited, there is a great possibility that there are some ritual or magic weapons left in the sacrificial place, when he thinks of this, can he not be excited.
However, Zhang Tianyu and Yan Yuntian's eyes when they looked at him were full of caring for mentally handicapped teenagers.
"Have you ever seen anyone bury an altar deep underground?" asked Zhang Tianyu.
"Hiss~ when I didn't say it......" Xuanyuan Qing muttered quietly.
"But I've heard ......"
......
"What do these words mean?" Fan Baili asked a question in a timely manner.
Xuanyuan Qing gave a grateful look.
This first word, the left line is charming, concave and convex, when it is a woman, a person on the right holds two fires, looking at the artistic conception, when it is a "demon" word.
The second and third, looking at the style, are all beasts, the left part is the same, and the difference is on the right side, which are the words "wolf" and "fox".
"What about the other side. Lin Tianxue didn't care about the bones, so she stepped forward and asked.
"If it is not bad, it should be the words tiger, fish, and snake. ”
"No wonder this skeleton looks strange, it turns out to be a shape-shifting monster. ”
"But what do those two blanks mean?"
"The two positions in the blank space are the same word, which is the word 'person'. ”
"Why are the two chairs of man empty?"
"I'm afraid, it's not empty, but, the person concerned has escaped!" Yan Yuntian's words shocked everyone, and they all had an expression of disbelief.
It turns out that these eight chairs are not ordinary things, they are only there to protect the tomb of the Raglan Demon King or important relics.
Eight people or demons are the right hand men of the demon king during his lifetime.
According to the tradition of the demon clan, the old generation of demon kings withered, and several capable members under his command will accompany them into the mountains or other extremely important places. However, generally speaking, the lifespan of the demon king is long, far exceeding that of his subordinates, so it is generally time to be buried and has long been old or old. And this Raging Demon King actually had six people to accompany him, which shows that he really died young as in the legend.
"Could the two Terran escorts be elsewhere, or died early, why did they escape?" Fan Baili was puzzled.
"If you die before the demon king, most of them will have coffins or ashes placed here, as for separation, it is even more impossible, the demon king's attendants have always been all in one place, and these two chairs are set up before at a glance, if there are no two positions, how can two empty chairs be placed. Take a closer look at what kind of clues these six skeletons may leave behind. Yan Yuntian said.
"Sure enough, the neck of this demon clan is showing signs of breaking. ”
"This tiger has broken several ribs. ”
"The wolf's limbs are broken!"
Yan Yuntian stroked his beard and sighed, "If my expectations are right, these two people regularly took care of the others before they escaped, and besides, these two people are not ordinary people, I am afraid that they are the ancestors of my human race demon sect and the righteous path sects!"
The air was suddenly quiet, the pin drop could be heard, and the rest of the people all had shocked expressions.
"It's very old, and only some legends combined with speculation have led to this conclusion. Back then, in the first half of his life, the Demon King of the Wild Lan was handsome and brilliant, and for a while, no one in the sea dared to beat him, and they all expressed their submission or loyalty. However, he is not an easily satisfied person, years of war, created an invincible mentality in the world, but also unable to adapt to a comfortable and peaceful life, it is rumored that after returning from the battlefield, he is bloodthirsty and killing, and will take the life of a minister or dignitary. ”
"Wouldn't that be a deviant of morality? ”
"Yes, if he continues like this, he may end his career as a demon king early, however, he encountered a battle with foreign forces, and after being hit, he returned to the king who used to be a corporal of Lixian. ”
"So, which is closer to the truth, this legend or the historical record?" asked Da Zhao.
Only those who experienced it at the time would understand that the past was pure speculation. We Terrans must have thought that he was not a good master, so we had the beginning of the rebellion. And the race that is still loyal to the demon clan must think that he is a great emperor, with thousands of people and thousands of faces, and it has long been ordinary. However, it can be seen from this that the status of the human race at that time was no longer just a slave as in the past, and it was clear that it had occupied two positions in the core. This is one of the signs of the rise of the Terrans. It was from then on that the two masters of the human race secretly cultivated and developed, and grew into a towering giant tree in the invisible corner of the demon ruler. ”
Yan Yuntian said that this history of the Terran family is very different from the version I heard before, and I think about it, a race that was originally a slave wants to grow up under the noses of vested interests, and without some special means, how can it be brilliant?
History has always been written by the victors, and the losers deserve to be exaggerated for their flaws and conceal their merits.
It is a job of the writer to decorate the past and beautify the past.
After figuring out the purpose of the eight chairs, the few people could no longer find useful information, so they paced to the final point, a closed stone door.
The ultimate mystery of this trip is behind this stone gate.
"It's too easy to get past here like this. ”
"It's simple because the remaining six people died in too much hurry, and they didn't have time to prepare too much, otherwise, this level would be even more difficult to break through than the white bone monsters. Otherwise, wouldn't these six ministers of the Escort be prisoners in vain, with no other use at all? Reality is inappropriate. ”
"How should this stone door be opened?" Zhang Dazhao looked around carefully, but he didn't see any news or anything like that, so he had to ask.
"Don't worry, first carefully check if there is any news from the agency, don't make a hasty decision. ”
